This is Why I Do This!

Hi Patricia,

I just want to update you that I am now almost 29 weeks pregnant and going strong! I want to thank you so much. I prayed about getting pregnant a 2nd time and I truly believe God led me to you to do it the most natural way possible. I was in disbelief of getting pregnant after being on  your herbal concoction just 2 months. I know God worked thru the meds because I had taken breaks from those awful fertility drugs before and never got pregnant on my own. Thank you! 
You are the only one that said to me I can get pregnant on my own!

Follicles are Small

Hi Patricia,

Thank God there is a response from the IVF stimulation medications. My right ovary is still a little sleepy, only 2-3 follicles.

Any ideas on how to wake it up? Please let me know if I owe you an extra consultation fee for all the excellent advice so far.

Sincerely,

Wambui

Hi Wambui,

I am happy to see that you have at least 2 -3 follicles. I have seen plenty of women get pregnant with this.

Are you taking PQQ? This will helped to increase the mitochondria which is the powerhouse of the cell. That might help those follicles grow. You can't your herbs while you are taking this medication. 

Stay away from sugar completely and eat as many dark green vegetables as possible. Kale is especially good. Eat it EVERY Day for now. Eat it twice a day!

Don't worry about an additional consultation fee.

Are Chinese Fertility Herbs Safe During Pregnancy?

Faith asked, "In case a pregnancy occur in the process of this herbal treatment, does it have any effect? or should we stop the medicine.

I answered:

Hi Faith,
That is a very good question.

I am EXPECTING you to get pregnant. I will never give you any herbs that you can't take when you are pregnant. You can take your herbs until they are finished. We sometimes continue to give herbs to help hold the pregnancy too. You would stop taking those at week 13.

To Get Chinese Fertility Herbs 

How Does a Chinese Herbalist Choose the Right Herbs

Hi Patricia . Just wondering what we're some of the rationales behind the questionnaire I had done. 

Hi Glodene, 

Traditional Chinese Medicine has been around for more than 3000 years. This is WAY before any lab tests. We rely on what the body is actually doing to determine what is going on in the body. So, I asked all kinds of questions to see what kind of balance your body is in. The better the balance the better the reproductive system. 

You have signs of imbalances like scanty fertile discharge, vaginal dryness, lower libido, 1-2 times getting up at night to urinate, agitated in the evening and hot hands and feet.  These are signs of what Chinese Medicine calls "Kidney Yin Deficiency". You also get yeast infections, have low energy and crave sweets and have had 2 miscarriages. These are signs of "Spleen Qi Deficiency". You are also get some breast distention before your period. This is a sign of "Liver Qi Stagnation".

I pick herbs to put into your formula to help these systems. When everything is well balanced women get pregnant easily and hold it.

I know this is a little complicated or at least it was when I was learning it. We don't really talk about balance in Western Medicine other than to say things like "balance the hormones". If you have low estrogen your doctor might give you it inn a pill but they don't have anything that will get the body to increase it on it's own. That might be why there are so many side effects. In Chinese Medicine we give herbs to help the body do what it should be doing on it's own. When it is doing it's job we don't have to treat that problem any more... well, unless it goes out of balance again.

Hope this info is helpful.
